Women. at the watering places have
taken a fancy to. make their own under
clothes. Perhaps the mystery of the
emplOyment-the necessity of sudden
concealment of the work from male
eyeS-makeS it delightful. At all
events, the ShyeSt of maidens likes to
embr0ider chemiSe right in group of
men, deftly folding the garment in her
lap so that it can nOtbe identified. The
DANGER OF THE SPORT GIVES IT ZEST.
Bullet me give explicit directions. A
pretty Sacque chemiSe is made of fine
linen cambric. The edges of the neck
and arm-hOles are finished with button
hole ScallopS, and across the front a mar
row pattern of dots is worked in thick
satin stitch below the Scallops; beneath
the dots row of small eyelet-hOleS is
worked, through which narrow cOlored
ribbon is drawn; the eyelet-hOleS are
worked, except for the space at the mid
die, at alternate intervals of quarter or
three-eighthS or an inch, and the fullneSS
can either be simply gathered by the
ribbon or can be fiattened and pressed
in plaitS. A stylish pair of open drawers
of white muslin are gathered to band
of insertion around the lower edges and
trimmed with a deep frill of embroidery.
The insertion has narrow stitched bias
at each edge, which is feather-stitched
with white cotton. A favOrite pattern
of closed nltIsiin drawers are gathered
to a band'at the lower edge and trimmed
with affiifOf embroidery.

and opened on the inside seam, not out

bow of ribbon is at the end of this OPEN

basted inside. Sometimes colored

DREAMS OF DEUTSCHLAND.

Good friends from Deutschland, when come
anear you
spell is round me flung
4 magic of enchantment when i hear you
Talking your grand old tongue,
And interluding with some famous dittyi
How oft the festal wine,
And tented field, and long beleaguered city,
Have heard that ''W acht EN- Rheinr
Yes. while you talk sit in dreams and listen;
/ see the fair Rhine run,
And white walls of Alsatian hamlets glisten
Beneath the summer sun.
The Lorelei sits combing locks all golden
Beneath the water swells;
And castellated crags look down the olden
Sternberg and Drachenfels.
hear the Minnesingers' voices tender
Like doves coo through the land;
Thuringen's knights ride forth in pomp and
splendor
To free the Jordans strand.
How many armed hosts have trod these
And battled on these heights,
From Caesars all indomitable legions
To Kaiser Wilhelm's fights.
Deep in Kyffauser are the centuries going,
Where in his cave profound
Sits mighty Rothbart with his long beard
His silent warriors round.
And when athwart the mountains and mo-
rasses
The moonbeam bridge doth lie,
Seei Over the hushed land what shadow
passes
'Tis Karl the Great goes by.
The Nibelungen lays are in your voices;
From out their dusty sleep
The dead days start-the olden joy rejoices-
The olden sorrows weep.
A thousand harmonies like worlds in motion
Blend, weave and intertwine;
And through them all still murmurs the great
OCEAN
Still sings the glorious Rhine.
But what are fancy's dreams to this last
glory
Dawn of your age of gold
Your German Empire? Who shall match
that story
In the famed tales of old2
1t has no peer in the heroic pages
OF Paladins ideal;
This present age elipses all past ages
OF romance or of real.
Yes in the accents of your land wonder
OF strange enchantment lies.
More sweet than the sweet music spoken
under
The softer Southern skies.
And you are mighty, marvellous magicians,
Prosaic though you seem;
One word Of yours can conJure up more
visions
Than could ten poets dream.
Constantine E. Brooks in Home Journal.

feature on these loose coat sleeves is
that of letting the material of the
sleeves. whether silk or wool, drop over
the cuff in an easy fold, making the cuff
appear to be an underSleeVe. Whether
this NAV be the sign of return to the
formerly fashionable undersleeve no
one as yet has ventured to predict, but
it will very likely prove so, especially if
the sleeves themselves continued to
grow wider at the bottom, so as to eX-
pose the arm. The full bishops sleeves,
gathered at the top and bottom. and the
muttOnleg sleeves, are seen Oh
many of the new gowns, but
it must be admitted that neither
of these styles has proven espe-
cially popular, and that women of con-
Servatives tastes wear the easy fitting
cOat-Sleeve that has just been described.
The fancy for ribbons is mounting al
most to enthusiasm. The lavish use of
them is getting to be almost riotous.
They are an inexpensive trimming, that
is, when one considers how decorative
They are, and they especially are very
effsctiye.an useful for Frightening up
lace, net or muslin dresses. The black
watered ribbons, an inch and half
wide, with pic0t edges, are the thing to
nse in black ..lace dresses, and those of
old rose pink, golden brown and Nile
green OH Light dresses.

didn't float out fiat on the water. Spec
tatOrS could see the safety pins if they
looked sharply at the box plaits in front,
and all the girls knew they were neces-
sary to keep ambitious dress imprOverS
from going up to the collar bone.
l don't suppose there was comller
girl who went into the water than En-.
The men on the beach said she was
hummer" (She is this week-a stay
to-hummer) Well, En- had the classic
tunic waist, but only one safety
pin. So into the treacherous Angora
flannel she had to put just plain,
everyday pin on the other side, and
into the water she went. We all heard
Jimmy SqueeZus say ''Aouch!' when
we were in the breakers, and it seems
that the pin came
OUT BODILY.
En- padded and tossed around, and
once when she came up dripping there
her up for Richard Ill. Before any one
had chance to say word she took
dip under an incoming wave, and the
most of us forgot it.
We were all standing in quiet water
up to our necks when Jimmy sang out:
II say. what's thiS?" and one of those
dress improvers was bObbing up and
down, like playful devil crab, on top
of the water. We every one of us came
near fainting till we found we were all
right. But Em-She sank, never to rise
again, we thought. fiSbed around and
found her, and she gurgled at me:
What, Clara, shall do? l can't come
out of the water this way"
Then it was Kitty Smith did a noble
deed. She puts a big piece of dry sponge
inside her Oilskin cap to look like her
wealth Of hair. (Iier real wealth of hair
is carefully hung on a nail in the bath
house.) Under cover of a lot of spray
she reached up and pulled it out.
Here, darling, pin that on. quick"
said she, giving it to En-; and, you bet,
Elm did. Those cruel men were playing
base ball with the dress Improvement
right over our heads; but En- knew she
was all right, and she just waded into
shallow water and stood triumphantly
where all could see she'd met with no
loss.
NY sensesi then the most hOrrid
thing occurred. That sponge had been
dry and about as big as teacup. Now
it took in water and began to swell.
The loose plaitS of that dreadful classic
tunic gave it plenty of room. No mans
head the day after election ever felt as
big as that awful sponge looked. We
screamed to En- to go out, or come in,
and she stood like fool, till, of sud-
den, she caught on to herself, and the
way she put up that sand to the shelter
of the bath house was lesson to dis
trict messengers. CLARA BELLE.

bellies get their dresses up. Although
pleasant pendent sleeves and dropping
raglets, called peplums, distinguished
the upper parts of these dresses, they
were made with great economy of cloth

the Greek style. A piece of tape
went across the breast on the in

HOWLORD LOWELL GOT LEFT

Lord Lowell he stood at his own front door
Seeking the hole for the key:
His hat was wrecked and his trousers bore
rent across either knee,
When down came the beauteous Lady Jane
In fair white draperee.

'.And so late it cannot be;
The clock struck one as / entered
heard it two times or three;
1t must be the salmon on which fed
Has been too many for me.''

ITO the maritime cavalree,
To your grandam of the hoary head
To any one but me.

With cigarette for key.'

There is at least one church on fash

church building is rather ancient, but
the lot is large and most valuable one.
Some time ago the congregation under
took the erection of another and more
modern building where ground is
cheaper, and, though still worshiping
in the old place, put up two large signs
